On this feast of St. Joachim and Anna, we blessed a new chalice and consecrated it for sacred use. This chalice, purchased with funds left over from my silver jubilee and other vacation funds, is solid sterling silver and will be considered my silver jubilee chalice.
St. Anne was prayer to by wood cutters in the middle ages, she was considered the root of the tree, Mary was the flower whose fruit was Jesus.
So I prayed for the silversmiths who handmade this chalice. Mary being the Chalice, Christ the saving blood.
